    Whitcomb and Gamel were excellent additions by Brown

    i still trust Singleton there.

    he had 1 bad play and everyone honed in on that one play.

    bregman, pena, and altuve also fug up once every 20 - 30 games and folks still trust them.

    Allowing a bomb to an absolute scrub? Cmon Blanco.

    Yordan’s neck won’t get better looking up at those sorts of shots.

    Glad nobody was on base. Gotta be competitive with the first 2 pitches.

    Caratini is not a first baseman. Sorry Vic.

    Maybe no more Caratini at 1B

    Whitcomb can probably do it

    Singleton is abysmal defensively.

    He's not usually a butcher if he gets to the ball, but there are a ton of balls he doesn't get to that an average 1B should

    Really strong outing by Blanco. Just give us 1 more inning.

    Lets get back to working the count. Breggy, Yordan, Yainer, Pena all got sent down quick after we got the lead.
